Democrats’ Desperate Damage Control
Well, folks, it looks like the Democrats are up to their old tricks again. In a move that reeks of desperation and fear, they’re now trying to block a federal watchdog from investigating Biden’s mammoth $400 billion green energy loan program. You heard that right – $400 billion of your hard-earned tax dollars, potentially being funneled to Biden’s buddies and foreign adversaries. But heaven forbid we actually look into it, right?
The Department of Energy’s inspector general, Teri Donaldson, has been digging into this green energy money pit for over a year now. And boy, oh boy, the Democrats sure don’t like it. They’re so scared of what she might find that they’ve launched an investigation into the investigator herself! Talk about shooting the messenger.

Follow the Money… If You Can
So, what’s got the Dems so spooked? Well, it turns out this Loan Programs Office has been handing out billion-dollar loans like candy on Halloween. And the recipients? Let’s just say they’re not exactly your average Joe looking to install some solar panels. We’re talking about politically connected firms, some with ties to foreign adversaries. You know, the kind of thing that should raise a few eyebrows.
But here’s the kicker: this isn’t the first time this office has been in hot water. Remember Solyndra? That solar company that went belly-up after gobbling up $500 million in taxpayer money? Yeah, same office. You’d think they’d have learned their lesson, but apparently, the Biden administration thought, “Hey, let’s do that again, but make it 800 times bigger!” Brilliant.
The Green Energy Shell Game
Now, the Democrats are crying foul because Donaldson hired an outside law firm without competitive bidding. Oh, the irony! They’re suddenly concerned about proper procedure when it comes to investigating their pet project, but when it’s time to hand out billions in loans? Eh, who cares where it goes, right?
Donaldson, bless her heart, is standing her ground. She’s emphasized the “checkered history” of this office and the critical need for taxpayer oversight. You know, that pesky little concept called accountability that the Democrats seem allergic to these days.
The Green New Disaster
Let’s call this what it is: a green energy slush fund masquerading as climate action. It’s bad enough that they’re pushing this radical environmental agenda down our throats, but now they’re using it as a cover to funnel our money to God-knows-where. And when someone tries to shine a light on it? They circle the wagons faster than you can say “solar panel.”
Folks, this is what happens when you give the keys to the kingdom to people who think the government knows best. $400 billion of our money, potentially going to line the pockets of Biden’s cronies and foreign adversaries, all under the guise of saving the planet.
